The Artichoke is a 1930s flint building, originally decorated in the Brewers Tudor style, with two cone-shaped roofs, original Young's, Crawshay & Young's windows, parquet flooring and a long solid wood bar.

Significantly refurbished in 2018, the bar features eight handpumps, including six cask ales, two ciders and a great selection of craft beers.

There are regular food pop ups in the evenings later in the week, and a great range of events including a popular quiz on Tuesday nights and live music.
